Interpretation: “Bictegravir plus emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide and dolutegravir plus emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide both showed high efficacy up to 24 weeks. Both treatments were well
- tolerated. Administration of bictegravir, a novel, potent, once-daily INSTI
designed to improve on existing INSTI options with the backbone of emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide, might provide an advantage to patients.”

Interpretation: “At 48 weeks, coformulated bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide achieved virological suppression in 92% of previously untreated adults and was non-inferior to coformulated dolutegravir, abacavir, and lamivudine, with no treatment-emergent
- resistance. Bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide was safe
and well tolerated with better gastrointestinal tolerability than dolutegravir, abacavir, and lamivudine. Because coformulated bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide does not require HLA B*5701 testing and provides guideline-recommended treatment for individuals co-infected with HIV and hepatitis B, this regimen might lend itself to rapid or same-day initiation of therapy in the clinical setting.”

- Baseline M184V/I in 10% of switch group (BIC-TAF-FTC)
- 96% (52/54) with archived M184V had HIV RNA <50
copies/mL for up to 48 weeks on BIC-TAF-FTC

Interpretation: “Pre-existing resistance substitutions, notably M184V/I, were unexpectedly common among suppressed participants who switched to BIC/FTC/TAF. High rates of virological suppression were maintained in the overall study population and in those with pre-existing resistance, including M184V/I, for up to 48 weeks of BIC/FTC/TAF treatment with no resistance development. These results indicate that BIC/FTC/TAF is an effective treatment option for suppressed patients, including those with evidence of archived NRTI resistance.”

Interpretation: “Bictegravir is a novel, potent, unboosted integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) that demonstrated rapid, dose-dependent declines in HIV-1 RNA after 10 days of monotherapy. Bictegravir was well tolerated, and displayed rapid absorption and a half-life supportive of
- nce-daily therapy in HIV-infected subjects.”
